The aggressor deliberately destroys hospitals, schools, residential buildings, roads, bridges, power plants and factories to subject our people to tyranny. According to Putin\u2019s criminal plan, Ukraine must cease its existence as an independent state.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The dictator\u2019s cruel plans will not bring the desired results. We are defending ourselves and democratic values, we are defending the integrity of Europe and we will fight until the last Red Army soldier leaves our land, dead or alive.

We needed it yesterday, we need today and we will need tomorrow, because the war will not end in a while. Many innocent people will be killed and injured, our businesses will not be able to produce books or packaging, and students will have to study in shelters. <strong>We need your help<\/strong> with medicine, bandages, vehicles that take the wounded from the front to hospitals and the dead to their families, so that they can bury them with the support of families who are losing brothers and parents.
